Globally, 115 million children are illiterate and 767 million people live below the poverty line as defined by the UN. In consequence, a great number of young people from developing countries are lured to foreign countries where they often end up working under inhuman conditions. Many never return home. This is the vicious circle that Human Practice Foundation is determined to break.
You can join us in creating a virtuous circle by providing quality education to all. Everyone should have acces to a quality education and the opportunity to learn to read, write and gain mathematical problem-solving skills. Without these basic skills, getting a decent job or even starting a business are unobtainable dreams. Education is the first step into a virtuous circle and the second is creating job opportunities - we are committed to both. Employment allows people to contribute to the family household, the community and society in general. Likewise, financial stability makes it much easier for the next generation to attend school. All of this helps secure long-term economic growth and build a virtuous circle.
We have a special approach to human aid work – an approach that builds on our strong commercial background. We ensure maximum impact for every crown invested. In fact, 100% of your donation goes directly to project work. This is possible because a group of Founding Fathers independently sponsors all of the administration costs of our projects. Our operations are effective and focus on results.
We are driven by compassion and dedication to our work. Some describe it as a fire that burns until we break the vicious circle. Our vow is to turn things around, to make life better for those most in need. The more schools and the more jobs we create the greater the chances are for more young people to rise out of poverty and change their path.
We ask you to join us on the journey towards a decent future for the next generation of the world’s poorest.
